A New Presentation: Aphallia, Vesicoureteral Reflux, Rectovesical Fistula, and Adrenal Insufficiency.
Article in Case reports in pediatrics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Aphallia or penile agenesis is a rare congenital malformation with an estimated incidence rate of 1 in 10 to 30 million births. More than half of aphallia cases have associated anomalies including caudal axis, cardiovascular, genitourinary, and gastrointestinal anomalies. The penile agenesis associated with adrenal insufficiency has never been reported in an infant. We report a rare case of a newborn that was diagnosed as a case of aphallia with vesicorectal fistula and vesicoureteral reflux, complicated by adrenal insufficiency with salt-wasting crisis.
